Introduction to Motivational Interviewing- What is it and how can it help? A talk for family helpers

How does someone make a change in their life- and what can I do to support it? Motivational interviewing is a scientifically supported approach of how to help people make changes. Many health care providers are trained in this approach in order to better support patients in making changes- whatever those changes might be. This approach also helps us understand why certain things we do to help people can accidentally backfire- they can make it LESS likely someone might make a change. This talk will focus on the science behind change and practical tips we can incorporate into daily life.
